La scienza dei capelli

Synopsis of La scienza dei capelli

«La scienza dei capelli» is the popular science essay by Elena Accorsi Buttini, published by Gribaudo in paperback (192 pages, in Italian).

It explains the false myths of washing, anti-hair-loss products and drying, and offers practical advice on straighteners, conditioners and treatments for more conscious care.
